Where to put a code to execute on every Laravel request?

I’m building a PHP app using Laravel Framework. I need to read some session values on every request and use this values on my controller methods.

How can I achieve this? Where to put this code?

I would like something like the Zend Framework Bootstrap class.

So, you can create a file named, for instance, BaseController.php which extends Controller. Then put your logic in the __construct()

Then, all of your other controllers can extend BaseController and in their __construct() they can perform a parent::__construct(); to make that fire.
